What it is
A full-size tin of iridescent blue magnetic Thinking Putty with a strong magnet that pulls the putty into rippling, wave-like shapes. The putty does not dry out and can be stretched, bounced and torn.
A tin of iridescent blue putty that comes with a strong magnet. When the putty is placed near the magnet it creeps slowly toward it and the surface ripples, a bit like a wave. Away from the magnet it stretches, tears, bounces and pops like other Thinking Putty. It does not dry out or leave residue on hands, and it is used as a fidget and hand-strength toy.
